This seminal horror series was given a whole new lease of life in the 1980s when a then-unknown British writer named Alan Moore took it over. The creature that once thought itself to be murdered scientist Alec Holland says farewell to its dream of humanity, meets a crew of benevolent alien invaders, and finds a new connection to the human world in the form of a loving - if somewhat unconventional - relationship with Abigail Cable (formerly Alec Holland's wife). This groundbreaking work features more genre-defying tales with Moore's unique, visionary insight, which made comic-book horror credible again, and features art by John Totleben ("The Sandman") and Steve Bissette ("Heavy Metal"). Warning: This title is for adults only!
